It's o-fish-ial, we're making #Julobster a thing.

The 2025 Climate Leaders to Watch These are climate champions looking for innovative ways to cut carbon and adapt to a hotter world.

For #InternationalWomeninEngineeringDay, we're spotlighting MBARI Engineer Kakani Katija, who has been selected as one of @bloomberg.com's “Ones to Watch” for 2025. Kakani's work on @fathomverse.bsky.social has landed her the recognition as a climate champion.

#ICYMI the entire FathomNet Workshop is now available to watch on YouTube!

Watch now to learn more about the FathomNet Database, FathomVerse 2.0, and how to contribute data, use FathomNet models, and engage enthusiasts through FathomVerse.

Please share broadly to your networks so this can reach its intended audience! And we are also looking for volunteers to help instruct/mentor. Details here: cv4ecology.caltech.edu/ai-upskillin...

To assist in that upskilling, and to foster a community in which those impacted can help each other build AI skills, the CV4Ecology program is organizing a two-week remote workshop in May of 2025 that will teach AI methods to former US public sector conservation scientists.

The AI for wildlife conservation community has been impacted by recent layoffs in the US public sector; many conservation scientists have reached out to AI practitioners for advice on building AI skills before re-entering the workforce.

In marine ecology, accurate taxonomic classification is essential for addressing fundamental questions:
--> What species exist in a particular place?
--> What is the ecosystem biodiversity and how does it change over time?
